One guy I'm excited about getting a look at is Usama Young, the corner we took in the 3rd round out of Kent State. Sounds like a big, physical corner who also has the speed to keep up with quicker receivers, and reports say he's been turning heads in Saints camp so far. He wasn't even invited to the Combine but may turn out to be a steal(though I'll reserve judgement on that so far, I remember all the New Orleans scribes fawning over Mike Hass at this time last year and look how that turned out).
Of course I think Jason David will end up as the #2 CB when the regular season opens, but the Saints may have found their #1 corner of the future in Young to eventually replace McKenzie.

I like the Young draft. Jason David is fine for now, but we play alot of 2 deep and Jason David is a better zone CB. Of course he will be better than highway 22, but I still watch Seahawks games and wonder what could have been if we had drafted Trufant instead of Sullivan. Man, Haslett pi$$ed me off.
